Currently taking a live rock show to awhole new level on their 36o world tour , U2 are reportedly lined up to appear on this winyers sixths eries of the X Factor. With rumours rife that Simon Cowelll is set to bow out in December , producers are keen to to draft in tthe biggest names in pop for their theme nights.Already the like sof Madonna , Elton John , Robbie Williams and Westlife have all been talked up as possibilties for the new series.
Cowell is said to be desperate to have the biggest band on the planet in the studio for a U2 themed night, at some point in November. Just what we need , more sob stories and someone murdering Sunday Bloody Sunday.
With the current tour hailed a roaring success yet with markedly disapponting sales of new opus No Line On The Horizon , an appearance by the band is not outside the realms of possibility
Personally , as much as I would love to see Madonna or U2 appear , and God knows they'd be foolish not to turn down the excessive coverge and exposure they'd receive. These two are mega stars and icons in a higher etchelon than the likes of Cowell , Walsh or Cole could ever achieve and it'd be great to think that some acts are just too big for Cowell and his ever expanding wallet and forehead.
Fact is , dwindling album sales or not both U2 and Madonna are two good for X Factor. Starnger things have happened so watch this space. And if U2 do appear , they could always recruit Diana Vickers to be " The Claw " on stage.
